  • Split error messages for failures to drop real uid and gid.
  • Retry dropping uid and gid, possibly this will help with the "Resource temporarily unavailable" failures I've experienced under xen.
  • Stop testing Encode::is_utf8 in decode_form_utf8: That doesn't work.
  • decode_form_utf8 only fixed the utf-8 encoding for fields that were registered at the time it was called, which was before the formbuilder_setup hook. Fields added by the hook didn't get decoded. But it can't be put after the hook either, since plugins using the hook need to be able to use form values. To fix this dilemma, it's been changed to a decode_cgi_utf8, which is called on the cgi query object, before the form is set up, and decodes all cgi parameters.
  • aggregate: Only save state if it was already loaded. This didn't used to matter, but after recent changes, state is not always loaded, and saving would kill it.
  • table: Fix dependency tracking for external data files. Closes: #458387"""]]
